| How's it possible that gas station coffee is way better than any K cup? (Posted on 2/20/13 at 9:23 am)
I drink K cups at work, usually taste like watered crap. I've tried many different times. Stop in Circle K and their coffee is leaps and bounds better. Keurig machine is the biggest rip off marketing invention ever.

the Kuerig is POS. We have the Cuisinart model and took the charcoal filter out. Coffee is great!

you're overfilling your machine. I have a kuerig and a verissamo. Both make great coffee if you don't overfill the thing.

been trying to tell people this for over a year now. but the fricking morons can't spend an extra 3 minutes of their days making coffee that tastes better and is more cost-effective.

K-Cups are absolutely terrible. I've gone to buying coffee instead of drinking them at work.

yeah wtf? by this logic if the machine is full you'd have to put a gallon bucket under the spout otherwise your cup would overflow.

There's a Kangaroo station down the road a mile or so.They've got at least 10 different coffees in the morning.I usually get the Peruvian Blue Flake.

i switch back and forth from being lazy with k-cups to making a pot in the vacuum coffee maker. obviously, the pot of coffee tastes better than the k-cup, but its so nice to just press a button and have a cup or two ready.

You are using the wrong k-cups. Starbucks French Roast is tight. ETA: You can't overfill my machine. It has a reservoir for multiple cups and you can choose from 3 sized cups. But yeah, it all depends on the coffee in the k-cups. It's not like the brewing process is that much different.

this also has a lot to do with it. I like the dunkin doughnuts ones. some of the green mountain ones are good too. I have had a fair amount that sucked pretty bad. I actually like the way the Verissamo makes coffee better but the lack of options is annoying.

these two... they okay as far as K cups go but still suck comparatively to gas station coffee.
